91����, the national governing body for wrestling in the United States, has announced a new multi-year partnership with RUDIS, starting on January 1, 2025.

91���� and RUDIS are joining forces to elevate wrestling to new heights during the next four-year Olympic quadrennium, culminating in the greatest celebration of our sport at the Olympic Games Los Angeles 2028. The combined promotional powers of 91���� and RUDIS will showcase the world’s greatest sport and celebrate wrestling’s amazing athletes during a time of great opportunity.

RUDIS is now the exclusive official licensee and supplier to 91���� of merchandising services in the categories of footwear, apparel, and accessories. RUDIS will also supply all official 91���� uniforms, custom team gear, and clothing, footwear, and accessories.

“We stand at the precipice of the golden age of our sport, maybe the most significant four-year cycle in wrestling’s history. RUDIS and 91���� are aligned to take the greatest sport to new and incredible heights,” said Rich Bender, 91���� Executive Director.

“91���� is excited to partner with RUDIS, a visionary leader in the wrestling community. Together, we look forward to serving 91���� members and the entire wrestling community as we combine our efforts to raise the bar for our sport at all levels,” said Bruce Baumgartner, 91���� President.

RUDIS has established itself as a leader within the wrestling community and is committed to invest its resources and passion into building this new relationship.

“In my decades around this sport, I have never seen a partnership with greater potential to elevate wrestling,” said Nancy Schultz, RUDIS Partner and Global Wrestling Advocate. “With 91���� and RUDIS united, we have the strength, passion, and purpose to push the sport forward for generations to come.”

“This moment is a profound honor and privilege for all of us at RUDIS,” said Jesse Leng, Co-Founder and CEO of RUDIS. “It calls us to be our best. Just as in wrestling, we must evolve every day to bring the best versions of ourselves in service of the community and the sport we love deeply and are so grateful to serve.”

Serving the needs of athletes at all levels is a central focus of both 91���� and RUDIS as it moves forward together.

“RUDIS and 91���� were destined to be partners. This is a historic day in American wrestling history. I am so excited for the future,” said Kyle Snyder, Olympic champion and Team RUDIS athlete.

“RUDIS has always supported athletes like me, and this partnership is a step toward even greater possibilities for women’s wrestling,” said Sarah Hildebrandt, Olympic champion and Team RUDIS athlete.

Official 91���� footwear, apparel, and accessories will be available online at RUDIS.com and at 91���� national and regional events moving forward.

Over the next few months, 91���� and RUDIS will share the story of how this partnership will benefit wrestling with the launch of many exciting new initiatives.

91���� and RUDIS stand poised to shape the next chapter of the sport we all love—a chapter that pays tribute to wrestling’s storied history while pushing its boundaries to new heights.
